That's one of my physical therapy exercises....standing up without using hands. I can usually do 10. Glad that is one of yours too. Good luck.

Hello @lena14 and welcome to the Parkinson's support group on Mayo Connect. I appreciate you sharing about some of your physical therapy exercises. Physical therapy is so helpful to anyone with PD.

When I was first diagnosed with PD, the most difficult symptom was balance and gait problems. As this is your first post on Connect, please share (as you are comfortable doing so) a little about your history with PD. For example, how long ago were you diagnosed, what are your most bothersome symptoms now, are medications helping you?

I look forward to hearing from you again.
